23 Best Japanese Restaurants near Powdersville

“Absolutely LOVE Dozo and have since they opened. The sushi is always fresh and we are always treated like family. Yes we miss Mr Mike but the cook at Powdersville is just as good!!! We will continue to support Easley and Powdersville locations for years to come. Do yourself a favor and try the kracken roll. Who knew bacon and sushi went together?!?!?!?“

“Favorite place to eat in Powdersville hands down! We’ve been coming to Nagoya since we moved here when I was ten years old(fifteen years!) and its always been wonderful! The staff has always been so polite and kind, and the food never disappoints! Love this place to bits!“

“Great sushi, excellent service , love the place !“

“Absolutely one of the best meals we had during our trip. The presentation was top notch, staff friendly and the food exceptional. Highly recommend!!“

“Great food with great prices!! Staff is always friendly and food is ready fast. Enough food for 3 meals. The steak is always tender, and the shrimp is very large. One of my favorites is the carrots!! I have my daughter and her husband driving from Powdersville to eat here, they own 2 restaurants and they loved Fuji!! Keep up the good food guys!!“

“Excellent tasting food and great menu options.“

“Terrific service and food was delicious! Got the hibachi chicken with fried rice, mixed vegetables and a salad. I always use shrimp sauce on my fried rice but needed none. The fried rice was so flavorful and the teriyaki sauce on the chicken and vegetables was great! Everything was fresh and new owners are passionate about their food and service🥰“

“I’m pretty harsh and picky when it comes to Japanese food. I think I have been through a dozen miserable oriental restaurant in Greenville with no joy until this place. We just had our second meal there and I am very happy to have found them. Great work from the kitchen and the crew. Spot on! Arigato!“

“Chirashi, Soft Shell Crab Salad, Dassai 45“

“I moved into The McClaren apts. (awesome place) about 14 months ago and discovered Otto Izakaya early on. Only 2 blocks away for me. Otto is, and has been, my go to place, especially when friends, family or business friends are visiting. Not a sole I have introduced has ever had anything but praises for the experience. If we are a small group, I always encourage dining at the bar. I have no idea who will read this, but people buy from people; and people they enjoy interacting with. I would be totally remiss if I didn't specifically mention bar manager Matt and his team behind the bar. If Matt has ever met a stranger, I missed it, as he has the personality to balance the engagement with customers, while still providing excellent customer service. Also, everything I've tried off the menu is high-grade and fresh! That's a must for me. I'd be slack if I didn't mention the awesome hard working sushi chefs, who are always open to preparing a creation to suit YOUR palate and preferences. As to other regular customers, and just my observation, but like me, they appear to have found a home away from home; a place to be comfortable, chill and let the time spent make a bad day better. I almost never take the time to give a review and especially a compliment; as I sometimes look for the negatives, as it is always so easy to criticize. So, as a native Greenvillian and business (person); and someone who believes and enjoys a five ***** experience that is reasonably priced, give Otto Izakaya a try. Whether you live in the area, or are simply visiting, when you leave you will already be thinking about when you can do this again! If you enjoy an adult beverage, be sure and stop by the bar and ask for Matt, as this master mixologist will want to know exactly what you're looking for. If you read this review and haven't stopped by, you're in for an experience catered to the way you would most enjoy it. And ladies, as I have a daughter in college, so please know whether by yourself, or in a group, you're in a safe place without being hassled and you don't have to look over shoulder (unless there is a stud sitting behind you), because Matt and the supporting staff will have your back so you can relax and enjoy. If you have a chance to meet the owner, please do, as his passion and dedication for excellence in all aspects of the business is instantly captivating. Sorry for the length of this, I was on a roll! No "pun" intended! Give it a try real soon! M.P. 😎“

“Hard to go wrong here. Can watch them make your food through a nice little window. Quality of food is good. I'd suggest substituting the ginger sauce for the shrimp sauce. I believe personally has a lot more flavor and definitely has a lot of this calories.“
